Lexus Improved Transmission

Recently Toyota has realized that their transmissions are slacking compared to the competition. German automakers and Ford have made a vast improvement to boost power, while keeping engine displacement smaller and efficient. While Toyota is throwing its hat in the ring, Lexus recently released the “NX 2.0T” for a two liter turbo. Many buyers of turbocharged engines do so for the performance, not the increased fuel efficiency.
Toyota, which owns Lexus, uses a continuously variable transmission (CVT) for a lot of its production vehicles. CVTs are transmissions that can change seamlessly through an infinite number of gear rations, from maximum and minimum variables. This is in contrast to other standard transmissions that offer a fixed number of gear ratios. CVTs can provide better fuel economy than other transmissions by allowing the engine to run at its most efficient RPM range of speed. The transmission can also maximize the performance of a vehicle by allowing the engine to turn at the RPM at which it produces the most power. CVTs do no demand a clutch, although sometimes on motorcycles they are used.
Lexus commonly uses CVTs and sometimes it is not hard to find a place that is capable of repairing these transmissions. European Exchange Inc. has years of NJ Lexus transmission repair experience and training. Their main goal is to ensure that your car is returned to you in a timely manner.
